Cases & Cooling

Computer enclosures, airflow management, lighting, and internal mounting solutions.

What is this category?

Cases house all components and define airflow, form factor, and aesthetics. Cooling keeps components within safe operating temperatures — typically below 80°C for CPUs and 85°C for GPUs. Together they determine system reliability and lifespan.

Where it fits

Every build needs a case. Cooling is critical for performance — a hot CPU throttles (reduces its own speed) to prevent damage, directly impacting user experience.

Common Use Cases

  • Desktop PC builds (gaming, office, workstation)
  • Server and workstation rack housing
  • Home theatre PCs (HTPCs)
  • Gaming rigs with high thermal loads (300W+ GPUs)
  • Small form factor (SFF) builds for space-constrained environments
